we will never be tested in the semifinal qualifying round.

Weren't we in danger of not making it out of this round last time?

Just looked it up and yes we were. We finished with 13 points while 2nd and 3rd finished with 10. It was still in extreme doubt going into the last two games.

If I remember correctly, we lost some matches early that kind of put it in doubt, but rebounded and didn't struggle in the later matches. I could be wrong, so pardon me that's the case.

Qualifying for the Confederations Cup was literally the goal of the entire year of 2015 for this team. Not Defeating Trinidad and Tobago in the only WCQ of the year.

In our 2nd to last game in that round we needed a 90th minute winner from GAM to win at Antigua and Barbuda. And we were tied with Guatemala at 10 points before beating them in the final game.

ETA: Looking back at it more, going into that 5th game against A&B, we were tied at 7 points with both Jamaica and Guatemala. So, yes, we were very much in a battle at that point.
